Do you train with a SRAM-Quarq power meter? Yes I do, it’s really important for training and be able to make progress.

What is one surprising or helpful thing you learned about yourself from training and/or racing with power? Heartbeat is a good indicator but not always reliable. To be faster it’s the best way!

You’re stranded on a desert island and you have to choose one of each of the following:

One album? Angus et Julia stone

One candy? Nutella

One vice? French crêpes
